I believe that users can run GUB no problem. We ship our own
guile-1.8 precisely to avoid this kind of trouble.

My intention is to persuade openSUSE to revert to guile-1.8 I can see no problem with this and hopefully I can generate some support for
this cause. I'm updating solfege atm and it's failing on lilypond in factory but lilypond is an optional requirement so I've moved lilypond
from a build requirement to a "Recommends:" temporarily until this is resolved. I haven't yet checked to see if there are other casualties
due to lilypond's failure. I may, at least, be able to move lilypond to the Packman repo and have a guile 1 there but it will have the
problem of removing guile 2 when installed.
I don't know very much at all about GUB, is it possible that I can package it and make an rpm from it that will enable the parallel use of
it? I haven't much time, because I was disconnected from the internet due to unfortunate circumstances from end June to mid August I missed
the lilypond build failure when guile was updated and new packages will no longer be possible soon.
Thanks
Dave
